- Good morning, Auntie Yoshiko. - Morning. Have a nice one!

Good morning, Auntie.

Morning, Onishi-kun.

Hey, your shirt's untucked. Your classmates will make fun of you.

Good, off you go now.

Good morning, Auntie. Where's Keita?

Yaji, your nose is running.

Keita, aren't you ready yet? Yaji's here!

I've told you so many times...

...to wake up 10 minutes earlier.

Kanae, wake up already!

- Yaji's waiting on you. - Okay.

I'm finished.

Morning, Kanae.

Hi.

Arert you having breakfast?

I'm on a diet.

Get a hold of yourself. That won't do.

How can you do a proper job otherwise?

Give it a rest will you.

You'd better listen to me!

Well, I'm leaving for school.

- Bye. - See you.

Hi.

You're late. C'mon, let's go.

"Kaminoe Town Primary School"

Hey.

Yo, what's up!

What the heck...

Good morning, Keita.

Oh, hi.

Okay, one, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Right then, one, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Okay, one more time.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Once more. One, two, three, four.

- Five, six, seven, eight. - Hey, put me down.

Okay, face each other.

Put your hands on your partner's shoulder. Put your right foot forward. Here we go.

Ready?

Hey, are we going to the secret base today?

My mom told me to go to Keita's barber shop.

Okay then, let's meet up at Keita's.

Okay.

Switch yourfeet. Ready?

You really have the best touch, Yoshiko.

It feels so good.

This is the one thing I can be proud of.

Which is enough, right?

I'm home.

Welcome back.

Hello.

Yaji-kun, I told you to come by after dropping off your backpack, didn't I.

You never listen.

It's okay.

Don't give me that. It's not okay.

"Beetle"

Idiot.

Idiot.

Idiot.

Hi, Auntie.

- Hello. - Hi, guys.

Are you guys going to get a haircut?

Nope.

Well if you aren't go somewhere else, then.

- Let go! - We wanted to see you, Auntie.

Did you miss us, too?

Yoshiko, all the kids love you.

Hey, settle down and be quiet. There's a customer here.

Customer? That's just Grandpa Mikawa. Right guys?

Auntie, got any snacks?

This is not a snack shop.

- All done. - Thank you.

- Sorry about the noise. - Not at all.

I'll come again.

Okay.

- Here. - Thank you.

- Bye now. - See you.

- Okay, bye. - Laters.

Here!

Catch!

- Thanks. - Oh, nice.

Not foryou yet. Sit down over here.

Hey, leave some for me.

Come on, be patient. Look straight ahead.

Hey sis, yourturn for a bath...

Don't come in without my permission! Idiot!

You're the idiot because you said it!

I'll fucking kill you!

I saw my sister naked last night.

"5th grade" - Serious?

Why didn't you tell us such an important thing earlier?

Did she have huge boobs?

Well, I was... shocked.

By what?

I don't know.

Don't give us that! Tell us how you felt.

I really don't know.

My sister is a woman, but I don't think of her in that way.

What!? That doesn't make any sense, man.

Teacher's coming, everybody!

Rise!

Attention! Salute!

Good morning.

Take a seat.

Good morning.

I have good news foryou today.

That's right.

We have a new classmate here.

Want to introduce yourself?

I'm Yosuke Sakagami. I moved from Tokyo. Nice to meet you.

Okay, give it up.

Nice to meet you, too, Yosuke Sakagami.

Take that free seat.

Did you already see the chorus for Mountain Day?

Yes.

What did you think?

Well, I'm not quite sure.

You're not quite sure...

Okay. Mao, could you tell him what Mountain Day is?

Yes, sir.

Mountain Day is when we make an offering and pray to the God of Mountain...

...so that we don't have a drought or deluge in summer.

Also, God of Mountain is a woman...

...and she is a jealous person, so only boys in town should sing forthe God.

That's right. Well done.

Mountain Day is an old tradition of this town.

You might find it curious since Tokyo doesn't have one.

Yeah...

Okay now, let's study.

Open yourtextbooks. Where did we get up to yesterday?

Page 14.

Hurry up and open to page 14.

Let's see...

Page 14 is... a section about rice...

Yosuke's so cool.

As expected Tokyo boys are very different.

All of our boys have Yoshino haircuts. Clueless orwhat!?

Have you seen any celebrities?

Huh?

Cool hair.

- What do you think about Mao? - Well...

You two make a great couple.

Have you been to Harajuku?

- Yeah. - Where do you buy your clothes?

Hey, Keita, what do you think about that new boy?

Huh? What do I think?

He has flashy hair like a girl.

But the girls were all over him.

That pisses me off. He's not that attractive.

I really don't understand girls.

Kawa-chin, aren't you just jealous?

What? Don't be silly.

But wasrt he flirty with Mao?

I know. That bastard.

What're you flaring up for, Keita?

I know, you like her, don't you?

What!? No.

Wow, Keita likes Mao?

Hey Yaji, don't be taking a shit!

- Hey, Yaji! Stop taking a dump! - Come out. Shitty Yaji!

Stop it!

Salute.

Good bye.

Okay, off you go.

- Keita. - Yes.

- Could you... - Yes?

...show Yosuke around this town?

Eh? Why me?

You live closest to him.

- What... - I'm counting on you.

Okay...

This is the best carp fishing river.

Through this shopping arcade, there's a bus station.

And my barber shop in the other direction.

There's the forest with lots of beetles during summer.

I see.

Hello!

Hi!

Oh crap! It's Uncle Keke.

I'm telling you, you get wisdom teeth when you aren't wise at all.

But it really hurts.

We call him Uncle Keke.

He goes back and forth through this arcade. Don't look at him.

That hurt! You idiot.

I'll hit you with the tail of my cat!

We lost him.

That was scary!

What's with him?

Like I told you, nobody can beat him.

Even my mom has failed many times to give him a haircut.

This is my barber shop. Wanna come in?

That's okay.

- Hey... - Yeah?

Why do all the boys in this town have the same haircut?

Because it's a rule.

And do I have to get a haircut at your place?

Yeah, probably.

This is the only one around here, and the school recommends my place.

And also we have Mountain Day.

What is it... Mountain Day?

A day to pray to the Mountain God.

I get that,

but why do you have to have the same haircut to pray?

Isn't it strange?

Well, because...

So you're the new kid.

Whoa!

You know, as a tradition all boys in this town are supposed to have the Yoshino haircut.

And our barber shop has been offering haircuts for more than 100 years.

Well, you are new here and will need more time to settle yourself in.

But you'd better change to the Yoshino haircut soon to be accepted in this town.

There happens to be no customers now, so...

What?

Come inside.

There he is.

Yosuke!

Hello, Auntie.

Oh, hello.

You can go, Keita.

- Why? - Because we'll show him around!

Yeah!

Let's go, Yosuke.

- Well, but... - Let's go.

Don't worry. C'mon.

Later, Auntie.

Bye, Auntie.

Man, what was that?

"Womers Body Anatomy"

Hey!

What's up?

What're you doing?

We found something cool.

What's that?

Oh, man!

Get outta here!

Ouch! It was yourfault.

It was yours, stupid!

Man, that was so close.

Why're you all blaming me?

Keita, what's up with Yosuke?

Girls snatched him away.

I envy him! Was Mao one of'em?

Yup.

Shit, man!

What? Do you like Mao, too?

Shut up.

That hurt!

"Out For A While"

Good boys and girls, it's 5 pm. It's time to hurry home.

Watch out for dark streets and blue green snakes.

Appreciate the nature and traditions of this town.

Tradition, what a wonderful thing!

Kaminoe Town is everybody's pride.

We'll have clearweathertomorrow.

No forecast of rainfall.

It will be the most suitable weather to dry your laundry.

Rock, paper, scissors!

I win!

Mrs. Hirata, who has rheumatism, was discharged fromthe hospital.

Fromtoday the Town Association is accepting donations.

Kindly bring themto the chairmars house by 6 pmtomorrow.

Well then, have a nice evening.

"Employment Opportunities"

I wonderwhat Kanae is up to.

She's been coming home late recently.

Please have a talk with her when she comes home tonight.

Sure.

Right, I'll go and take a bath.

Here goes.

He never listens!

Hurry up and do your homework.

I was just going to.

Keita...

Tell that new kid to stop by and get a proper haircut.

Okay.

I want to believe that the loneliness...

...will change me

I can't and won't say good-bye

You're still one ofthe shiniest memories for me

Azusa train 2 at 8 pm...

- Honey! - I... I...

Don't disturb the neighbors!

Everybody did poorly on the Kanji quiz yesterday.

You have to study harder.

And, Yosuke, swing by the faculty lounge later. Okay?

Okay, now rise!

Well, as you might already know...

ourtradition requires all elementary school kids to have the same haircut.

Get the Yoshino haircut asap to be accepted by town people.

Okay?

You can go now.

I don't want to.

What?

I don't want to have the same haircut as everyone else. Absolutely not!

But...

It can't be helped because it's ourtradition!

Can't it?

Then it won't be long until I move out of this town.

Excuse me.

- Hey! - This way. Over here, to me.

- Uh, no good! - Keita, why're you so spaced out?

Look, my mom asked me to tell you to come and get a haircut.

If you want to play soccerwith us, get a Yoshino haircut soon.

Why?

He doesn't have any hain'to cut.

Why's your mum cutting so carefully?

There's no hair on the floor either.

I asked the same thing. My mom said it's from affection.

Affection? What do you mean?

Don't know.

Hey, Grandpa Mikawa, did you also have a Yoshino haircut when you were a kid?

Certainly.

Me, my brother, my oldest brother, my sons, everybody had a Yoshino haircut.

Why?

Oh my, you guys don't know?

I'm surprised!

There is an old legend in this town that...

...a Tengu goblin who lives in the mountain serves the Mountain God.

Tengu? That red face goblin with a long nose?

That's right. It's said that the Tengu is sometimes mischievous...

...and kidnaps kids from this town.

We had to do something to protect our precious children.

So we made them all look alike with the same hairstyle to fool the Tengu.

Is that true, Mom?

Hmm... I wonder.

But there are dolls with the Yoshino haircut at the shrine. So it could be true.

And this barber shop has maintained the Yoshino haircut tradition, there's no doubt about that.

Oh, Keita, did you tell that new kid to come by?

Yeah, I did.

His hairwas so bad. I feel obligated to cut it.

Oh, it feels so good!

Keita.

Yes?

Will you stop by Yosuke's home to give him his handouts for today?

Me again?

You live the closest.

Okay? I'm counting on you. They're right there.

Alright...

Quickly! You can't go home otherwise.

Hi. These are the handouts fortoday.

Oh, thanks.

Got a cold?

Well, yeah.

Bye.

What's up?

What's up?

Hey, don't you think Mao's boobs have been growing lately?

You're nasty!

What's this? I knew you liked her, Kawa-chin!

Shut up.

But it's true that her boobs are biggerthan other girls'.

What? Do you like hertoo, Gucchi?

Heh heh.

Hey, Yosuke was off sick again today, huh.

Yeah.

Keita, you dropped by to give him handouts, right?

Is he that sick?

No, he didn't look it.

He's just faking it.

He should have the Yoshino haircut soon. Then he can join our group.

I wonderwhy he refuses to get a Yoshino haircut.

You know what,

my cousin from anothertown laughed at my haircut. Said it looked weird.

Really?

"Thank you for your contribution for 29 years"

I'm home.

Hello. You're late.

Yeah...

Um, well, the thing is, about my job...

- Hey, Keita. - Huh?

I didn't see that new kid. Was he off sick again today?

Yeah.

Really.

Maybe he's faking it because he doesn't want to have a haircut.

I don't think so.

You were saying?

Oh, nothing.

See you later.

Later!

Keita's got it rough. He has to go to Yosuke's place everyday.

Does Yosuke intend on never coming back to school?

Hey, let's find out if he's really sick or not.

- Okay, let's go. - Let's split.

What? Hey, wait up.

Here, these are today's handouts.

Thanks.

Yosuke! Um... What it is...

What's wrong, Yaji?

The thing is... Sorry, but I can't hold it anymore!

Where is it? Where is it?

- Where is what? - The bathroom!

Down the hall.

What the hell Yaji, you need to shit again?

You're always shitting. We'll call you Shit.

He's always taking a shit.

Oh.

Where's your mom?

Not here. She works during the day.

Hey, Shit, did you wash your hands properly?

I did!

You smell, Shit.

Don't call me Shit!

Um, Yosuke...

...why did you stop coming to school?

Yeah, why'd you stop showing up?

Because I don't want to have a haircut.

That's what I thought!

I knew you were faking.

Why do we all have to have the same haircut?

Because it's ourtradition.

The teacher said so, too, but I think that's strange.

Why? How is it strange?

Unifying kids' hairstyles is a violation of human rights.

Nobody can force us just because it's a tradition.

Article 13 guarantees us the freedom of our hairstyle...

...as it's a part of our personalities.

They deprive you of freedom in terms of tradition or customs.

I don't find such a tradition or custom valuable.

Hairstyle reflects the value of personalities...

Okay, we got it!

What did you get? I don't get it at all, Kawa-chin.

You don't have to get a Yoshino haircut.

I admit it.

What the heck are these?

Oh, porn magazines.

How did you get 'em?

They're from my Dad's collection. I stole them during the move.

Cool!

I have a lot more. Here.

Too cool! What the heck!?

These are dirty and not for kids! You'll be scolded.

Don't look then.

- Kinda of makes your crotch ticklish, huh? - It does.

Stop, guys. You'll get in trouble.

Shut up, Gucchi.

That's right. Don't look if you don't want to.

You guys...

Alright, we welcome you to our group.

So we should hide all these magazines at our secret base, okay?

We'll take you to our secret base.

"Yosuke's Book Collection"

Wow!

- Let's do this again tomorrow. - Okay.

Here.

Heads up.

Overto me.

Let's split up.

Keita and Gucchi, go that way.

Okay!

He seems to have gone the otherway.

We're safe!

Why? Tell me what I did wrong. I'll change whateveryou don't like!

I'll do better.

That won't make any difference.

What? Then what will?

You're annoying!

Why can't I be the one?

Please stay, I'll try harder!

Wait!

- Hey, dudes! - What's up?

Hey, there.

Keita, did you tell Yosuke to bring 'em?

It's taken care of. He's coming.

You know what, my mom told me not to hang out with Yosuke anymore.

How come?

She said that he must be a bad boy because of his hairstyle. So...

We don't care if you go. But don't you ever come back to the base.

No...

Yeah, right. Go home, Gucchi.

Go home! Go home! Go home!

Go home! Go home! Go home!

Go home! Go home! Go...

Okay, but you'll regret it!

Whoa!

Thank you.

You've gotta stand up firmly and walk, okay?

Yes, I'm sorry.

Don't listen to what stupid grown-ups tell you!

What?

So, should I pull the tooth out? My wisdom tooth hurts badly...

Yo!

Did you bring 'em?

Yup, different ones from the other day.

Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!

Whoa!

Hold on.

- Ready? - Yeah.

Wow!

- What's this? - That's a vagina.

- She's drooling. - Here too, look.

- Oh, isn't that English? - How the hell should I know.

What use are you?

- What's with all the squares here? - This is great!

This is really cool, huh?

- What's she doing there? - That's nothing.

Cool!

- Wow, what's this? - She's peeing like a baby.

Oh my, this is nasty!

Amazing!

A cigarette, in there...?

It was real.

A real Tengu.

Did he come to kidnap someone?

If he did, he came to kidnap you, not me.

That's why you should've gotten a Yoshino haircut already!

I'm telling you. Get it cut, alright?

But something's not right. Tengu is an imaginary creature.

Why did you have to bring them to school?

Because I didn't want my mom to find 'em.

And I was going to return 'em back to the base.

But why did you hide them in the flower garden?

Because having 'em on me made me feel kinda dirty...

You're dirty by nature anyway!

Besides, you should've come up with a better place to hide them.

Try using your head a little.

That's right. And it's down to you that we're in trouble now.

You ratted us out!

I'm sorry.

But Yosuke shouldn't have had those magazines in the first place.

You were the one who took them away from the base, right?

You should've just told us if you wanted to look at them.

That's right.

Yeah, that's right.

I said I'm sorry!

- Hey, bastard! - You squealer!

Hey! What's going on?

"Rich Milfs" "Gekiga Adult Manga"

When I found out that you were looking at something kids shouldn't...

...I was very shocked.

Moreover, bringing this to school...

...should never happen.

Right?

I made phone calls to your parents.

Write a 10 page essay!

30 pages foryou, Gucchi.

What were you thinking?

Who'd those nasty magazines belong to?

Speak up!

That new kid, right?

Good morning, Auntie Yoshiko.

Morning.

Good morning.

Morning.

Good morning, Auntie.

Morning.

Hey, you!

You! Come here!

You know, your hairstyle is a bad influence on everybody.

So make sure to stop by after school. Okay?

I give kids around here a haircut.

I'll give a haircut to that flashy hairdo of yours. You listening?

I will never let you do that.

My wisdom tooth hurts.

Ugh! It's her.

You should give up already and get a Yoshino haircut.

Yeah, yourflashy hair makes you stand out and bothers people.

I don't want to!

Your hairstyle should be your own choice, after all.

It's guaranteed in the Constitution...

All right already!

Hey Yaji, what the heck have you been doing?

It feels good when you rub your penis against the pole. Try it.

But why do all the elementary school kids have to have a Yoshino haircut?

Maybe because we have Mountain Day every year.

Why is it necessary for us all to have the same haircut...

in orderto pray to the Mountain God?

It's the tradition, just like Grandpa Mikawa said.

Besides, Mountain Day is originally celebrated at the shrine, right?

Then isn't it strange for boys to sing Hallelujah.

What do you mean?

Because The Mountain God is Shinto, but Hallelujah is for Christians.

Why would you sing a Christian song for Mountain Day?

I wonderwhy that is...?

When did we start singing Hallelujah?

That would be when Xavier first arrived at Tanega Island.

Wow, Gucchi, you know something.

Guess I do.

Considering that, the Yoshino haircut kind of resembles Xavier's style.

Xavier had a bald spot at the top.

Yeah, that's why people call my dad "Bald Xavier".

But since it's called the Yoshino haircut...

...I guess your mother's family must have set it up.

That's right, and it's strange that kids have to go to Keita's mom's shop.

But that's only because the school recommends her.

But still...

Maybe your mom cooked all of this up.

What do you mean?

Good boys and girls, it's 5 pm. It's time to hurry off home.

Appreciate the tradition of this town. Pull out the root of the delinquency.

The Yoshino haircut is perfect for all boys.

Appreciate the tradition ofthis town. Pull out the root ofthe delinquency.

The Yoshino haircut is perfect for all boys.

Have a nice evening.

Keita's mom is very persistent.

What should we do?

To be honest, Yosuke, when you moved here...

...I thought you were mean and snobbish.

We were jealous of your cool hairstyle.

My cousin laughed at my Yoshino haircut.

I can't ask out the girl I like because I'm ashamed of my Yoshino haircut.

Who were you going to ask out, Kawa-chin?

Shut up!

What was that for?

Would we look cooler if we stop getting Yoshino haircuts?

It depends on the person, but... yeah. I think you can all be cooler.

Me, too?

Sure.

I'm sick of the Yoshino haircut. Maybe hairstyle should be our own choice.

I want to look cooler, too!

I want to be loved by girls!

So do I!

Okay! Let's plan a strategy.

Welcome home.

Keita?

What was that?

What do you mean?

Yourtown announcement today! Give it a rest already!

Everyone thought it sounded pushy.

The Yoshino haircut is such an embarrassment!

You're too young to care about your hairstyle.

Wait until you grow up!

"Kaminoe Town"

Hey, the bus is coming.

The bus is here. C'mon!

Get on!

Hurry up, Keita. Quick!

I'm coming.

There it is!

So this is it?

Hey, who should go first?

What should we do...

Hey, they're kids from the next town!

- They're so cute! - Adorable!

Hey, what's with this?

It's so smooth.

Hey, what's your name?

They ran off.

- So cute! - Totally adorable, huh?

Look, they're from the next town.

Clueless!

- They're like mushroom heads. - They look awful.

"Salon Shape"

What should we do?

I can't do this anymore.

You traitor, Gucchi.

I'm going in!

Is he all right?

- Who should go next? - Hmm...

We've got a problem! They charge 3,000 yen forthe haircut.

3,000 yen!?

That's a lot. Keita's mom only charges 700 yen.

Any discount for kids?

3,000 yen is with a student discount.

That's impossible!

What should we do?

Maybe we'll never be cool.

No, it's too early to give up.

Be quiet, okay?

We know.

Cut it out!

Stop it. Knock it off, will you.

- All set? - Ready.

Okay, good.

- Yaji. - Huh?

- What are you doing? - You go first.

- Auntie might come. - Be quiet!

I'm the son of a barber. Trust me, I'll make you look cool.

- Why me? - Hush! Auntie will wake up!

Don't wake her up, Keita.

No!

- I said, be quiet! - I'm scared!

Stop it!

Where's mom?

She went to school for a PTAthing.

- Oh. - What?

What's wrong, Keita?

Good morning.

Hey, you, just a moment.

2.5 cm. Okay, good!

Tell your mom that Auntie Yoshiko will need to give you a haircut soon.

- Sure. - Okay, then, bye. Have a nice day!

- 2 cm. Yoshino-san, if you would. - Right.

- Come here. - Good morning.

- Good morning, sir. - Okay, look up a bit more for me.

And close your eyes.

Good, now you look like a boy should. Off you go now.

What should we do, Keita?

Good morning.

Don't "good morning" me. What's going on?

It's been decided that all boys' fringes will be checked once a month.

Seriously?

Stop this, I'm begging you!

Run for it, Yosuke!

- What? - Run away!

Hold it right there!

Wait!

Wait up!

Wait up!

Wait up!

Maybe we all have to give up.

Guess there's no way for us to be cool, huh.

It was impossible right from the start.

But even Yosuke was forced to have a Yoshino haircut...

I'm pissed.

I guess I don't want to have the Yoshino haircut anymore!

But that would mean taking on your mom, wouldn't it.

I know, so...

So?

I'm not going home until I become cooler. Who's with me?

Where are you going?

Do you have any pubic hair?

What?

Pubic hair. Is there any down there?

Not yet?

Well, just a few. Thin ones...

I see.

You shouldn't only focus on how you look...

...although I know you're concerned about your clothes and hairstyle.

You see growing as an adult is quite difficult.

Keita, I was left behind in this world.

What?

But no matter how advanced people become hairwill always grow.

So the barber shop will never go out of business.

That's why you should be proud of your mom.

Say, Dad...

What's it like to be an adult?

Well...

- Dad! - Give me a sec.

I have to come up with something cool to say as a father.

You don't have to. It's okay.

Dad!

Like I said, it's hard. Because you see...

Well... How do I put it...

In otherwords to be an adult is...

...to become considerate to others.

So, how was it? Was it cool, what your Dad just said?

I don't know.

I can't and won't...

...say good-bye

You're still one ofthe shiniest memories for me

Azusa train 2 at 8 pm, I will...

...depart from you

Yeah!

You know, my Mom will be mad if she finds out about this.

What're you talking about Gucchi? It's too late to be a coward now.

Mom is scary when she's mad!

I'm afraid of my dad, too.

I'm disappointed in you two.

What about you, Kawa-chin?

Me?

How about you, Yosuke?

My mom is liberal, so...

A love-rally mom? What's that?

Guy's, that's nothing. You know my mom is the scariest one.

Nobody can beat her.

Yeah, she's the most powerful.

But she as given us pocket money.

Yeah, and snacks, too.

Hey, Yosuke.

Could you go shopping with me when I become a cool dude?

Yeah, sure.

Yeah! I'll beat you all.

But no matter how cool you become you'll still just be Yaji, right?

Yeah, Yaji will always be Yaji.

Why're you guys laughing? What's so funny?

Just because... don't sweat it.

- Tell me? - Why was Yaji made Yaji?

He'll never change, right?

Go already.

No!

Wait a sec.

- Hurry up. - Let's go!

What the hell...

Hey, knock it off!

- So long, Yaji. - Bye.

Wait up!

Hey!

Here are some logs.

Thanks.

I'll have some bananas.

Sauteed banana tastes the best.

- I know. - Does it really taste that good?

- Then I'll have 'em all. - Fine with me, have the lot.

- Hey, it's not fine with me. - I've taken this one for myself.

I have a confession to make!

I like Mao Uesugi.

Heh, so you like her after all, Kawa-chin.

I confess, too! I like Mao Uesugi as well!

What? You like her, too?

And me! I also like Mao Uesugi!

Seriously? Keita likes hertoo?

You too, Keita? Too many rivals!

Then, I also want to confess. I like Mao Uesugi, too!

You're not qualified just yet.

What?

You have to grow up some more.

Why? My birthday is before yours!

I told you, you're not qualified at all!

- What's your problem!? - Don't!

- Give me my bananas! - Like hell they're yours!

Drop 'em, lard-ass!

- Thanks. - Shut yourtrap!

- Give 'em up! - No, I won't!

Don't ignore me!

Hey! Don't eat that!

- Too late, all gone. - Didrt you hear me?

Yes, then, please give us a call if you have any more information.

Yaji is with them, too.

What's wrong with them?

Lt'll be okay. Keita's not a kid anymore. He has to think for himself.

But...

Say, Yoshiko...

Do we have to be that stubborn about the Yoshino haircut?

What're you talking about? Of course we do!

The Yoshino haircut is one of ourtraditions.

Maybe this town isn't developing because we cling to old things too much...

...such as traditions and customs.

Then, are you saying you don't care about ourtraditions?

No, no, I never said that.

It's our duty as adults to protect the kids, isn't it?

The Yoshino haircut distinguishes our kids from othertowrs children.

By protecting the tradition we're protecting our kids, aren't we?

But you know...

ratherthan kids' hairstyles, there are some otherthings we could protect instead.

Like, the scenery of this old town, the atmosphere...

The Yoshino hairstyle is a part of the scenery for me!

- I got it! - That was close!

Really, didn't it hit?

Kawa-chin, your up.

Right.

Give it some.

Guess I'll choose a beetle for my next class research assignment.

That's what I'll do.

Don't copy Keita.

Then what should I do?

Oh, I know!

What?

I'll research Keita who researches a beetle.

You're really stupid.

Why?

So today we have a town festival.

If you happen to see those boys, let me know immediately.

Got that?

Yes, sir.

Then I'll research Yosuke who researches Yaji who researches a beetle.

Then I'll research Gucchi who researches...

...Yosuke who researches Yaji...

...who researches Keita who researches a beetle.

Then I'll research Kawa-chin who researches Gucchi...

...who researches Yosuke who researches Yaji...

...who researches me who researches a beetle.

Then I'll research Gucchi who...

...researches me who researches Keita who researches a beetle.

Huh... I'm getting confused!

Then I'll research a beetle which researches a beetle...

...which researches a beetle.

- Come again? - Yeah, what the hell was that?

That'll be 3240 yen.

- If you wouldn't mind. - Sure.

They werert at the riverbank.

Let's hang on a bit longer. I'm sure that they'll come to the festival.

What's that?

"No More Yoshino Haircuts"

You guys! What have you done to your hair?

Isn't this enough? I can't go on. Let's stop this.

It's too late now, Gucchi!

Keita, hurry it up and say it.

Um... well...

Hey Keita, say it now!

Where have you all been?

Do you know what you're getting yourselves into with hair like that!

Get down from there now!

What're you waiting for, Keita?

Keita...

Bitch, listen up!

We're sick and tired of your Yoshino haircut!

Fuck the tradition! Don't smother us with that shit!

Don't force your Yoshino haircut on us!

We all want to be cool!

Hairstyle should be our own choice!

I hate it, too!

I've hated it all along!

Same goes for me!

Me too!

And me!

- I'm sick of it! - I want to be cool, too!

I hate it, too!

I've hated it all along!

I've never liked it, either!

- I hate it, too! - I don't wanna look like a dork anymore!

- I can stand it either! - I'm sick of it, too!

I want to be cool! I don't want this lame haircut anymore!

Bitch, listen up!

We hate having your Yoshino haircut!

But I'd hate it more seeing you become everyone's enemy.

Arert you happy even if you don't have any money?

I had my wisdom tooth pulled out and my constipation was cured!

I'll split my red bean cake with you.

"Mao Uesugi"

Go home already.

Thank you.

Thanks.

I'm glad to see you're cheering up.

Thanks foryour concern.

Still, when I think of my father and grandfatherwho've passed away...

I understand.

But times are changing. It's sad, but the world's moving forward.

And as it does a tradition becomes a myth.

I'll come by again.

Thank you.

I'm home.
